Lengendary Dancer Jacquie "Tajah" Murdock

It's always an honor and a pleasure to photograph dancer, Jacquie "Tajah" Murdock. Not only does she continue to dance into her 80s, but she also dresses up everyday no matter what. Jacquie grew up in Harlem, always dreaming of being a model and a dancer-She knew at five years old that she wanted to dance. A few years ago The Apollo Theater recognized Jacquie as a legendary dancer and one of her dreams came true. I hope Jacquie can inspire everyone to stay active and never forget their dreams.

Jacquie is totally georgeous Ari. Wow, and congrats to her for being recognized as a legendary dancer by the Apollo Theatre. She is stunning. I love the black tights under her dress. Awesome, just awesome. Makes me want to look like that. I better lose weight first,tee hee. Great photo.

Oh My Gardem! This lady is into her eighties, I'm loving the 'Billy Holiday flower' in her hair, and her print, transparent and print dress. Just fab, such poise and grace wrapped in style, with a sprinkling dash of pizzazz- YUM!

So inspiring. I have a good friend in her mid-80s who still comes to ballet class with us several times a week. She has survived cancer and fractures from falls. She says it is dance that keeps her young.
